NASA GODDARD #OSIRIS-Rex | Asteroid Prospecting Adventuring #ToBennuAndBack- to Earth with science …..

On 8th November 2016, Northern Hemisphere Eastern Date Time.. “NASA- OSIRIS-Rex” is set to launch on Space Launch complex 41 at the Cape Canaveral Air Force base on in-between 1905 to 2100 EDT.. In which the first webcast will begin on 1630 EDT…. The mission is launch on a “United Launch Alliance Atlas Five 411 Configuration rocket with an interesting unusual rocket configuration of having one SRB- Solid Rocket Booster on one side… with going against tradition of having dual SRB’s on for a more balance launch..  as the secondary Centaur Stage provides the remaining transportation towards Bennu..

The Launch of OSIRIS-Rex, will be adventuring out towards a NRA- Near Earth Asteroid in venturing prospecting vital information on what mineral deposits on Asteroid Bennu contains… also its investigation one key part on many is on origins of the solar system, how water and organic matter of various sorts would impact on Earth in the fundamental understandings.. of researching mining Bennu drawing a composite sample back to earth like the same mission specifications like the Stardust sample retrieval program.. in which gives an commercial understandings of how to start Asteroid Mining with the newly onset mining companies like “Deep Space Industries”   to start building installations from the ground up on mining Asteroids …also this will provide a key sample extracted on a larger scale extraction than the Apollo’s Luna mineral extraction sample  on Earth Moon back in the 1970’s……once the extraction of the sample it’ll makes its way back to earth where it makes reentry collection point in the Utah Desert United States of America  for retrieval…..

ULA- UNITED LANUCH ALLAINCE | Delta IV AFSPC-6 – Launch cinematic Highlights- You Just might want to turn up the volume for this….

You Just might want to turn up the volume also the full screen resolution up for the Launch Highlights from 19th August 2016 from Space Launch complex SLC-37 at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida on a very need coffee early morning at 12.00 EDT, “United Launch Alliance” launched a twin – share United States Air Force payload, in which it is two Geosynchronous Space Situational Awareness Program (GSSAP) satellites….   As you can see the preparations from the Atlas four assembly tower has it finalized the assembly with it slow retracting in prepping for the launch for that early morning as the super moon rises overhead with thundering roars of the Atlas Main engines and it’s solid rocket motors….Into near near-geosynchronous orbit… The twin GSSAP satellites are built by “Orbital ATK” in which this payload is design specifically design for enhancing the perception of operations of the US Air force’s U.S. Strategic Command space enhanced awareness operations.. One part of the operations of the launch is to bring awareness of spaceflight in bring satellite collision avoidance controls..  Also this is a dedication tribute launch to one of ULA’s Dearest work colleague, friend… Ramey Hill…

” wink at the Moon……and she’ll will wink back at ya.. !” remembering the Late Astronaut Neil Armstrong.. 

During the month of August 2016, has been interesting in the night skies in Auckland, New Zealand in which is generally located in the Southern hemisphere… during the recent week, the Auckland night skies have been generous gorgeous in which the Winter has already arrived in place of the of the two wintery planets in between currently of the constellation of Scorpio with side by side of least 110 million kilometers away, fifteen minutes light ago is the rusty orange Planet Mars as to of the other side is the one billion Kilometers, about one light hour ago is the ringed Planet Saturn..

The Moon Luna has been interesting during August as showing crowds, some interesting features as it when through the Waxing Gibbous process towards the full moon, as it show highlights of its crater shadowy kilometers length shadow casted on the Luna surface as the Terminator line receded… among it the Chinese Story of the Jade Rabbit showing the bunny ears mare features of like the sea of Serenity which makes one pair of the bunny ears, Tranquilly the head of the Jade Rabbit.. The area in which Apollo Luna Landings have populated…

Among what’s been happening this past week, or this month is the fiery light show of the Perseids meteor shower in which just happen last week, as the Planet Earth in which you’re living on is passing through giving you a need to picnic in the dark with your love one romantically in between the 11th to 12th August 2016 in which with a peak observation during when you two look up in the constellation Perseus. In between Aries, nearby open Cluster Pleiades…

As to the rocket launches, there was least two currently this month, one Space X, in which was a Geostationary telecommunications Satellite the JCSAT 16 launched from Space Launch complex 40, in which was launched from the same Falcon nine reusable that launched JCSAT 14…… the other one from 19th August in which was an United Launch Alliance from Space Launch complex 37, in which was a US Air force collision avoidance detection satellite on a Boeing Atlas four rocket..
